There are lot of resources available on the Internet about “Customer Service“, how to serve customers like God, and how one customer can turn into a chain of Customers [just by hitting the bullseye with the first one

Just came across an interesting video of a child selling peacock fans on the streets of Mumbai [near Hanging Garden], the special part is , He has learnt many languages, only to the extent that he can answers his customer’s queries – “What is Peacock Fan”, “It’s uses”, “It’s Price” etc. etc.

Mahatma Gandhi’s definition of CUSTOMER:
1. A customer is not an outsider to our business. He is a definite part of it. A customer is not an interruption of our work. He is the purpose of it.
2. A customer is doing us a favor by letting us serve him. We are not doing him any favour.
3. A customer is not a cold statistic; he is a flesh and blood human being with feelings and emotions like our own……. More here

BIG companies should learn about “customer service” from the guy in video.
Customer Service is very very important!

This is just the right video to prove that everything can be learnt and nothing in life is IMPOSSIBLE.
There is a great deal to learn from this child not only for companies but for every humanbeing who fears learning.
Hey,
@Janukin:You touched an important aspect which is Learning…As you have rightly pointed out “This child is a teacher for all of us” who has rightly conveyed NIKE’s message – “Impossible is nothing” 🙂

A customer is the most important visitor on our premises, he is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him. He is not an interruption in our work. He is the purpose of it. He is not an outsider in our business. He is part of it. We are not doing him a favor by serving him. He is doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so.

Hey,
@Purnank: Very nice definition.I liked this line “We are dependent on him….He is doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so”
I have added the same in the “Reader’s Contribution” section…thanks for this wonderful link.

Very insightful post.. Lots of businesses forget that they are in business because of their customers. Customer satisfaction should always be the top priority of all businesses.
Hey,
@Social Networking Designer: As every successful business person says “Customer is GOD” ….. This video reveals that 🙂
Thanks for the comment and dropping by !!!
